Hi all,

I have the PulsarII + Luna I/O + Scoope 3.1C running on
an old pc with windows 98se, because i have been a
great fan of tripleDAT. But it seemes the development
of this product are not happening at all :-)

So i have decided to go and buy me a bigger and better
PC with a lot of ram and windows XP.
Then im gonna buy Cubase 4 Studio.

However my question is will my equipment:
PulsarII + Luna I/O + Scoope 3.1C work with
Cubase 4 Stuido on Windows XP?

On the PulsarII package it says: "PC, 300 Mhz, 64 Mb Ram, Windows 95/98"

Thanks for all Input!

Motherboard = Asus (& if possible "Deluxe" version, P4P(or C) 800-Dlx, P5B-Dlx)
Power supply = if possible Antec (1 more Fan in front face).
Ram = Kingston (1024 mini)

Thanks,

But will the audio card Pulsar II run on windows XP?

I was looking at this PC setup:

Intel Chipsset
Dual Core
2 Gb Ram
SATA Harddisc

opdate SFP to 4.5, check the CWA site, you get a lot more for a few bucks more than back in those days (M'nM or S'nS pack) :-)
There's no problem to run on XP, they even say even Vista support is at the zenith, tho Creamware said nothing about it.
The only hardware barrier is the new type of PCI-e, so check out to buy a board with 'old' PCI slots :-)

OK, Thanks - that was really important to know!
So the old PCI slots are called what? "PCI-e"

Cool.

no, the new ones are called PCI-e, and we also had a few PCI-x, on mac at least, but that path is abandonned already.
So PCI you must have, the advised boards from above undoubtly have them :-)
(I don't know actually, I'm on mac).

i'd go for the core duo, it's a better processor.
the 945 chipset should be good, but i'd go for the 965. the intel d965ryck, it's about $125-135.
